Kirche und Wahrheit

Hartmut Rosenau, Christian Schicha und Christine Schliesser.[Church and Truth]This edited volume brings together the contributions from the 2023 and 2024 annual conferences of the International Bonhoeffer Society, German-speaking section (ibg). Inspired by Dietrich Bonhoeffer's profound reflections on "church" and "truth", the authors address key questions of our time. The 2023 conference focused on the future of the church in the midst of a crisis, posing the question: What does it mean that Christ exists as the church when it is in crisis? In 2024, the central question was how we can speak of truth today in a world where digital media and fake news increasingly hinder the search for truth. Bonhoeffer's reflections on church and truth prove highly relevant, offering guidance for contemporary debates on credibility, ethics, and the church's testimony in the 21st century.[Publisher's text]
